Take a balloon and fill it with water and secure the top
...Melt down your paraffin or candle wax then allow it to
cool as much as you can before it begins to set .
Next dip your water filled balloon into the melted wax and
pull it out. allow this thin layer to harden . then re-submerge
the balloon again keep doing this till you have a thick layer
around 1 cm .
Now pop the balloon and remove it from the candle shell .
using the same low temperature pour a small amount of wax
into the candle shell and roll it around till it covers the
edges and once again allow it to cool . You may want to make
these inner layers a different color for a rainbow
effect .
Keep repeating the last step (using different colors if desired
for each layer) Until the candle is just about full , then
in the last pour slip the wick into the center and again pour
the last layer of wax in until the wick is held firm .
Using a flat hot plate melt a flat bottom onto the candle
to help the rounded bottom sit straight on a table
